Beowulf.

Only because I liked it more than the Lara Croft one and I haven't seen any of the others.

The only one I've seen is Sky Captain and didn't care for it, so I vote "None of the Above". I have a disc of Beowulf floating around here somewhere, only picked it up for Neil Gaiman's script, but haven't gotten around to watching it. I'd have to say Angelina isn't much of a draw for me.

I've only seen about half of those movies and only thought two weren't stinkers (Lara Croft was the other decent one). I picked Girl, Interrupted because she's the most sexaaay. :)

I haven't watched too many of her films, so I went with Beowulf, where I thought her animated look was interesting,
even though I did not like like how Beowulf himself was not much of a hero, which is needed for such a tale, I think.

I liked Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow well enough (and more than anyone else that I know), but my liking
of the film had nothing to do with what Jolie was doing in that film (as all of her scenes could have been cut and the
movie would have been improved, methinks). Otherwise, there were some nice Movie Serial and Fleischer Superman
like scenes in that one, which I quite enjoyed.

I think I saw one of the Laura Croft movies, but I can hardly recall it. The rest I either have not seen or didn't notice her
in them.

Saw the first Laura Croft movie (didn’t realize there was more than one). I vaguely remember finding it mildly entertaining eye candy and mostly forgettable.

Looks like there were three Tomb Raider movies, but the third was a reboot without Jolie.

The thing for me with Ms. Jolie is she is too obviously Ms. Jolie. After her first couple of roles, It's proven impossible for her to disappear into a role, and be an actress. And, in a weird way, she's too attractive to be an actress. I think there's a great actress in there, but it doesn't get to shine.

I also think she has the same kind of issue as Cara Deleveigne; her script decisions are not good. Maybe people are overpaying to get her sex appeal, but it's made it difficult to judge her as an actress.

Of the ones mentioned, Girl Interrupted and Gia were her best acting jobs, Mr. and Mrs. Smith was her most enjoyable performance.

And no one mentioned Gone in Sixty Seconds, and to quote that particular movie "Sexy, sexy, sexy"
